Also known as Cueva del Moro, it was excavated in the Middle Ages. The oldest documentary reference to what was a church appears in a document from the León cathedral archive, dated July 3, 990.
Although in 2018 access was arranged to be able to visit it by digging some steps into the clay and placing a rope to facilitate the ascent, currently access is not easy. The clay ladder has disappeared and the rope is down. In August 2022, it was included in the Red List of Heritage prepared by the Hispania Nostra association due to its "possible state of conservation".
